Be a better literacy coordinator

"Be a Better Literacy Coordinator" takes as its guiding principle the idea that children's minds are fires to be lit not buckets to be filled.

It stresses that the first duty of any literacy coordinator worth their salt is to bring literacy alive by inspiring a love of books and stories in the children.

The book is divided up into seven sections: What does an effective literacy coordinator do?; Working with pupils; Keeping on top of your subject; Achieving targets and strategy goals; Your teaching room; Working with colleagues and parents/carers; and Looking after yourself.

These cover all aspects of the role of the literacy coordinator and explain clearly and concisely how to cope with the demands of the job in a time efficient and effective way.
